NAME
Dist::Metadata::Tar - Enable Dist::Metadata for tar files
VERSION
version 0.910
SYNOPSIS
my $dist = Dist::Metadata->new(file => $path_to_archive);DESCRIPTION
This is a subclass of Dist::Metadata::Dist to enable determining the metadata from a tar file.
This is probably the most useful subclass.
It's probably not very useful on it's own though, and should be used from "new" in Dist::Metadata.
METHODS
new
$dist = Dist::Metadata::Tar->new(file => $path);Accepts a single file argument that should be a path to a tar.gz file.
default_file_spec
Returns Unix since tar files must be in unix format.
determine_name_and_version
Attempts to parse name and version from file name.
file
The file attribute passed to the constructor, used to load "tar".
file_content
Returns the content for the specified file.
find_files
Returns a list of regular files in the archive.
tar
Returns the Archive::Tar object in use (loaded from the file attribute).
